The occurrence of (3-Methoxyphenyl)methanethiol is closely related to sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
(3-Methoxyphenyl)methanethiol (CAS 7166-64-5) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C8H10OS and a molecular weight of 154.23 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C8H10OS, (3-Methoxyphenyl)methanethiol contains sulfur-containing functionality, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 154.23 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
